Philipsburg Manor & Cold Spring Village

A beautiful day at Philipsburg Manor







Weaving and spining demonstrations - ethan was very distressed not to be able to touch the massive "steering wheel". We also got some photos of the sheep shearing but all a bit undignified for the poor sheep so we'll spare you those.


We had some traditional games to play - stilts.....




... and hoops






we then drove on to Cold Spring Village. So named because George Washington passed through and drank some water from a cold spring. Genius.




The pagoda by the river was more impresive than ian's expression would suggest.
